I have a pop-up that is in the bottom right hand of my computer. It is in a elongated circle with a paragraph that reads your computer is infected dangerous malware infection was detected on your pc the system will now download and install most efficient blah blah blah--- if you click on it it goes to spy-axe and offers a download for a mere 50 bucks. This will not go away and makes an annoying "pop" sound as well! Can anyone help? elswano

Please go to the malware forum and follow the instructions at the top....Especially the CLICK HERE .

That will give you several steps that will help you clean up 70 percent of all problems by yourself. If at the end of the process you are still having difficulty--and you may not be-- then post a hijackthis log in THAT forum.

If you are still having problems after getting a clean bill of health from the malware expert, please return to this thread.
